Adding members to your wiki so that they can create and share content is simple to do. Wiki provides you two different ways in which to add members.
You can invite members using email addresses. This is a convenient method if your students already have wiki accounts. You would simply ask them to JOIN THIS WIKI.
OR...
If your students do not have a wiki account, you will need to import them as members to your wiki through the USER CREATOR icon under MANAGE WIKI.
Once your wiki is on our free K–12 Plus plan, you can create up to 100 accounts at a time with our User Creator tool. You will not need to provide email addresses for your students when you use the User Creator Tool:
Navigate to your wiki.
Select Manage Wiki.
Under People, select User Creator.
Choose the wiki you would like to add the users to.
Enter your list of users as text, or upload an excel or .csv file with usernames and passwords. Email addresses aren't required to create accounts. Keep in mind that every Wikispaces username must be unique. Try using numbers, or initials, or a first name-last name combination to create unique usernames. The school username and the 6 digit student ID number are perfect.
The User Creator will guide you through the process of setting up your accounts. If you have any questions, send us an email at help@wikispaces.com .
Choose the method that works best for you and your members.
A good way to gather student information for wiki accounts is to have students fill out a google form that asks them whether or not they already have a wiki account. If not, ask for their school log in and 6 digit student ID. Google forms will load this into a spreadsheet that can be easily copied and pasted into an excel spreadsheet for loading into wikispaces. Please ask you AIC for assitance with this portion if necessary.
